Photoluminescence (PL) from CdS nanoclusters formed in the matrix of a Langmuir-Blodgett film and from the same clusters with the matrix removed has been studied. The PL spectrum of clusters in the matrix has the form of a broad band (full width at half-maximum (FWHM) ∼ 0.6 eV) peaked at 2.4 eV. After removing the mat…
Aqueous solutions of poly(vinyl methyl ether) are experimentally studied at temperatures below the equilibrium freezing temperature of water. Earlier investigations of the peculiar phase behavior of PVME/water gave evidence of the existence of a molecular solvent/polymer complex in which (at most) two water molecules…
We report on the kinetic behavior of adsorption from solution of a family of triblock copolymers, copoly(ethylene oxide−propylene oxide-ethylene oxide) (PEO−PPO−PEO), on a gold surface modified by a methyl-terminated, self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of a long-chain alkanethiol (CH 3 (CH 2 ) 10 SH). We monitored the kin…
The thermal behavior of surfaces of polystyrene (PS) films of 80−100 nm thickness decorated with gold nanoclusters with radii ranging from 9 to 18 Å has been investigated by in situ X-ray reflectivity measurements. Recently, the embedding of tiny clusters driven by the large difference between the surface energies of…
Koaleszenz von Nanokügelchen innerhalb von 3D-Übergittern könnte die Bildung der ferromagnetischen monodispersen Cobalt-Nanostäbe einleiten, die aus [Co(η3-C8H13)(η4-C8H12)] in Gegenwart von Stearinsäure und Hexadecylamin entstehen. Die Selbstorganisation dieser Nanostäbe zu hexagonalen 2D- und 3D-Übergittern wurde mi…
This book was originally published in 2002. Elastic proteins occur in a wide range of biological systems where they have evolved to fulfil precise biological roles. The best known include proteins in vertebrate muscles and connective tissues, such as titin, elastin and fibrillin, and spider silks. However, other examp…
An effective method was developed for generation of insulating tubular boron nitride (BN)-sheathed nanostructures. ZnS nanowires and multilayered Si-SiO2 nanowires were successfully sheathed with insulating tubular BN-forming nanocables. Both the semiconductor nanowire cores and the BN sheaths are crystalline with wel…
Rational outer-sphere design can be used to optimize heterogeneous catalysts. Thus, imprinting of bulk silica was used to prepare tethered active sites with hydrophilic (1) and hydrophobic environments (2). In the Knoevenagel condensation of isophthalaldehyde with malonitrile, for example, 1 gave rate enhancements of…
Abstract Exposures were conducted of iron, nickel, ferritic 1‐18%Cr steels, austenitic 18%Cr‐9%Ni‐ and 20%Cr‐31%Ni‐steels and a 16%Cr‐Ni‐base alloy at 500°C in He‐30%H 2 O and 70%H 2 O‐30%NH 3 , to compare the corrosion behaviour of these materials in water vapor as in conventional power plants with their behaviour in…
Rationales Design der äußeren Oberfläche kann zur Optimierung von heterogenen Katalysatoren genutzt werden. Durch molekulares Prägen von Siliciumdioxid wurden so aktive Stellen mit hydrophilen (1) und hydrophoben Umgebungen (2) erzeugt. Die Knoevenagel-Kondensation von Isophthalaldehyd mit Malonitril verlief mit 1 etw…
Abstract Wie Graphit sind Nanopartikel aus anorganischen Verbindungen mit zweidimensionaler lamellarer Struktur wie MoS 2 gegen Faltung instabil und können daher Nanoröhren und Fulleren‐artige Strukturen, auch anorganische Fullerene oder IFs genannt, liefern. Für solche Nanomaterialien wurde eine Reihe von Anwendungen…
Anionic meso -tetrakis(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphine (TSPP) interacts with poly(amido) amine (PAMAM) dendrimers of generations 2.0 and 4.0 in aqueous solution to form several dendrimer-associated species, which depend on the relative concentrations of dendrimer to porphyrin (D/P ≡ [PAMAM]/[TSPP]). At D/P ratios above the…
The photophysical properties of acetonitrile solutions of [Ru(bpy)(3)](2+) and [S(2)Mo(18)O(62)](4-) are described. We discuss evidence for ion cluster formation in solution and the observation that despite the strong donor ability of the excited state of [Ru(bpy)(3)](2+) and its inherent photolability, adducts with […
Abstract The thermodynamic equilibrium between metallic iron, iron oxides, iron carbides and an hydrocarbon/hydrogen mixture was calculated at 600°C. On the basis of the metastable Fe‐C‐O phase diagram, both metallic iron and iron oxides can be directly converted into carbides in reducing and carburizing atmosphere. T…
The formation of large-sized, well-oriented microdomains of poly( l -lactide)- b -poly(ε-caprolactone) (PLLA−PCL) was successfully achieved by using different crystalline substrates including benzoic acid (BA) and hexamethylbenzene (HMB), whereas spherulitic crystalline texture was obtained on amorphous substrates. Cr…
Ferromagnetic properties have been observed in CuO doped with 3.5–15 at. % of Mn. The transition from ferromagnetic to paramagnetic phase at TC=80 K is associated with the metal–insulator transition. Magnetoresistance is weakly negative in the vicinity of the transition, but positive in a wide range of temperatures be…
The synthesis of a poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-grafted surface-reactive random copolymer and its self-assembled structure on Si/SiO 2 substrates for construction of nonbiofouling surfaces are reported. The copolymer, poly(TMSMA-r-PEGMA), which is comprised of an “anchor part” (trimethoxysilane) and a “function part” (…
Diatom shells (see picture of cell of Stephanopyxis turris) contain long-chain polyamines attached either to putrescine or to phosphorylated silaffin peptides. These polyamines direct the in vitro formation of silica nanospheres from silicic acid. The concentration of multivalent anions (such as phosphate) defines the…
The physical properties of magnetic nanoparticles have been investigated with focus on the influence of dipolar interparticle interaction. For weakly coupled nanoparticles, thermodynamic perturbation theory is employed to derive analytical expressions for the linear equilibrium susceptibility, the zero-field specific…
We have re-refined the X-ray structure of the heme site in cytochrome c553, supplementing the crystallographic data with quantum chemical geometry optimizations, instead of the molecular mechanics force field used in standard crystallographic refinement. By comparing the resulting structure, obtained using medium-reso…
